UPDATE: SCPD Taking Back SCSU Students Unwanted Drugs

Due to weather the Drug Take Back Day has been postponed. The event is best done outdoors and will be rescheduled before the end of the semester.

The St. Cloud Police Department is giving the SCSU community its first opportunity to get rid of students’ potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted drugs.

Students can bring their unwanted medications for disposal to the parking lot behind the Public Safety Center for free and anonymous disposal. No sharps, needles or thermometers will be accepted.

The medications can be legal or illegal and no questions will be asked. The goal of this initiative is to get rid of the medications that can lead to the possible misuse or abuse if left in the cabinet of one’s home.

This first-ever Drug Take back Day at SCSU is sponsored by the St. Cloud Police Department, the Stearns County Sheriff’s office, SCSU Health Services, U-Choose and Public Safety.
